Import Tips
• Verify value exceeds $12/pair with commercial invoice; undervaluation leads to reclassification or penalties
• Confirm upper material is predominantly rubber/plastics via lab testing if contested by customs
• Provide athletic use documentation to distinguish from casual footwear and avoid Chapter 64 misclassification
